    Updating my review from a couple of years ago. The garlic knots are still the best in town. The food and pizza are absolutely delicious. And we were able to get an 18 " speciality pizza 1/2 Carnivore and 1/2 Bianco Deluxe. Most places don't let you split a speciality pizza like that. Service was great. Hailey was very friendly and helpful. Looks like they changed the inside a bit and it was booths now. There is picnic tables outside and I am not sure if that is new or not new. Highly recommend checking out this place for pizza. You won't regret it. And don't forget to get those garlic knots. :)

    It looked and smelled like it came out of a dumpster. This was the worst pizza we have ever experienced. Go the opposite way!

    Great pizza good service. Amanda took care of our order well. She said 20 minutes. It was done in 18. Not really sure what New York style pizza taste like, but it was very good . My kid loved the garlic knots. Ambience is great for a small family run pizza joint Will go back again !

    Omg these burgers, fries, and BBQ sauce!
    Lexy M.

    We're absolutely blown away in every way! Worth the drive from oceanfront! The best burgers, pizza, bbq sauce, ranch, and garlic knots I've had in all my 35 years of coming to Virginia Beach every summer. Their fries and cheddar jalapeño bites are so good too. Those garlic knots are famous for a reason! Wow just WOW! The place was really clean. There's plenty of inside and outside seating. Plenty of parking. The staff are so incredibly friendly and welcoming! It's family own and ran and they're great! We ate like kings there and can't stop talking about it. Huge delicious portions and reasonable prices. We're from NY (Queens and Western NY) and picky about pizza, ranch, burgers, and garlic knots! We LOVED them! Do yourself a favor and go to the pizza box!

    The Box Deluxe with banana peppers added. Yum

    Good New York style pizza, Friendly service. My friend is allergic to bacon of all things. She cannot even have the food if it is cooked on the same grill as the bacon. We checked. This place is great. She got a smashed chicken sandwich and fries. I got to taste it . I am getting this next time. It was great. It is a small restaurant. 4 booths and a couple of tables. There is some seating outside. We have never had an issue getting a table. Quite a few people get it to go or delivery. We usually go on the weekend. There is a steady flow but your food comes out fairly quick. We usually get the "Box Deluxe" 12inch. Sometimes we add stuff on. That is always nice that even with a specific pizza they let you customize and add on. There is plenty of parking because you can also park in the TJMaxx parking lot

    YES first let me apologize for no pictures of the food, the reason why I destroyed it each and every time. Every Item I have had was amazing, the staff even let me try some food, the guy on the pit outside can burn. The ladies taking your order are full of smiles and laughs, and the cooks just DO WORK!!! They also have a bit of a throwback theme inside the restaurant. If you are driving to fast down the BLVD you will past it, but turn around U-TURN, catch a bus, cab, I don't care just get there and you will leave full and will order more food for dinner later on that day.

    Tomato basil soup
    Claudia C.

    This restaurant is attached to a pawn business and is literally close to Virginia Beach Blvd, we entered the Foodlion parking lot, and the search began. Come to finally investigate a free-standing building with pawn signs. From the rear of this place, the signs from the back did not identify it as "The Pizza Box," just offerings of select food...subs and something else. Had we gone past it and turned at the light, it would have been no problem. Next time. No wait, order at the counter, and they bring it out to you. The staff was warm and welcoming. After a brief conversation, we learned they make their own dough and sauce. We were ready for a treat. Also, they have a handwritten board on the corner of the counter with specials. My husband ordered a bowl of tomato basil soup, one of his favorites, and this version did not disappoint. What arrived was a square bowl of piping hot soup with a basil leaf on top, under that was some cheese, I am guessing shredded mozzarella, but i could be wrong.This soup had texture to it, like the whole tomato minus the seeds all blended into a delightful, fragrant creation. A+ there, he really enjoyed it. I ordered a slice of pepperoni pizza and a large size (10) garlic knots that the reviews raved about. They were the best I have ever had, crispy on the outside, doughy on the inside. Fresh out of the oven, so aromatic. They were served on a plate circling a small cup of marinara sauce, all sprinkled with parmesan cheese. 5 went home. The pizza slice was the low point of the meal, a bit dry. It did have a thin crust, which I prefer, that may have contributed to its dryness. Next time, I will order a full pizza rather than a slice. The flavor was good, I have to give them that, and the pepperoni was just right. The chicken wings also had great reviews and market priced, which gives us something to look forward to next visit. Fountain drinks come in an oversized glass, so appreciated. I was looking at the smoker and picnic tables out front and thinking that must bring in the crowds when it is operating. There is something about a smoker with billowing smoke and the meat in it, making you want it. Thinking about the traffic going by and being drawn in, I know I would have stopped. There are plenty of areas to park and walk in at street level. The dining room is small, just a few tables and a few high-top bar seats, all very clean. I would actually give 4.5 stars if the pizza was more on target, then clearly 5 stars. The staff does a great job, plenty of quality to be proud of.

    Visiting from out of state great find on the road to the beach, super reasonable prices, GARLIC KNOTS ARE A MUST TRY!!! Would recommend to anyone service was excellent for such a cheap meal, super chill people and workers all seem happy!

    Literally our new favorite pizza spot. Mom and Pop vibes. Great service. These people are so kind. We usually opt for a 14" half pep and sausage and half broccoli and onion. I typically order a beer while I wait and they always offer a chilled glass. At $28, plus the option to sign up for loyalty rewards, Pizza Box is a steal for how good this pizza. I cannot get enough.

    35 fantastic wings, bleu cheese, celery & an ordered side of extra honey hot sauce
    Brennen K.

    It's been a little bit, but I got the craving for pizza & wings yesterday. Unfortunately, it was Monday so my hopes were dashed but I just decided Tuesday would be alright! Knew it would be 45-60min delivery, hey quality is not lightning speed & I planned accordingly. Happily ordered up on Local/Toast as soon as my work was done. Ordered 35 wings cuz last time I was disappointed I ate the bakers dozen so fast. Ordered crispy cooked honey hot, as usual- OMD, perfect. Crunchy skin and juicy tender inside! Went a lil different on pizza, pepperoni, pineapple and extra cheese. Crispy cooked, also. Accidentally clicked bacon, removed, then thought- WTF NOT? It was a good choice to go with happy accident. Excellent addition. The crust, as always, is perfect balance of crispy, biteable exterior with a really nice pull/chew that is perfectly satisfying. My only complaint is on me- I forgot the garlic knots! But honestly this will keep me busy for a while. And let me tell you- with air fryer for reheats leftovers are just as amazing as fresh delivered. If I were going to eat it all upon delivery, like if there were several folks available, I might order Xtra crispy for my personal preference. But honestly the crispy is fantastic, and lets me re-live the fresh delivered with no detriment. The quality of ingredients is always a step above, the delivery folks are always professional & super nice, and the taste is always exceptional. I don't even mess around when I want delivery, I know exactly where to go for a consistently exceptional experience. Thank you, Pizza Box!

    Box deluxe
    Zane O.

    They have authentic New York style pizza. Great variety of pizzas. We get the "Box Deluxe " good flavor on the sauce with the right about of toppings. 12 inch is plenty for my wife and I for lunch. Great service and really friendly staff. Beer and soda available. I like to get the lemonade

    Garlic knots!
    Mary H.

    This place is a real gem! Super friendly service, cute mom & pop atmosphere and delicious food! The garlic knots are the best we've ever had and I could have made a meal just of them! Calzone was huge despite it being a small and it was filled to the brim with delicious cheese and our choice of bacon & ricotta garlic. We also tried the Margarita which was a bit sweet with the balsamic and the deluxe with added bacon which was amazing. Definitely one to support, The Pizza box is a new family fav!

    Do they take credit cards? Sometimes these "mom and pop" places are stuck in the '50s on cash only payments.

    They definitely take credit cards. I used one to pay every time I've gone there.

    It's a little curmudgeonly of me, but I didn't want this place to be as good as it actually is. I…read moredo work around this area and had been curious about Yorkie's for a while; about a month ago I had the opportunity to stop in. It's kind of like Taste in that it's like a Hip And Trendy Sandwich Spot - the staff is mostly perky, cool, and very competent college students - and the prices are about on par with Taste as well, but for what you get here, it's probably double the value of what you can get there. I got their tuna melt, which stuck with me for long enough that it had me craving another sandwich like that when I was in the area again. So today I was in the area again and I brought a friend, who also got the tuna melt and loved it. The thing about that sandwich is that they probably put about a half pound of bluefin tuna salad on it, and it's not mayo or filler-heavy. It's very tuna-forward, which is a plus to me. This time I got the Kevin's Bday, which was turkey, bacon, cheese, LT with this amazing garlicky green onion aioli, because honestly I was like, "Well, the tuna melt was really good. But what about just a Normal Ass Sandwich??" Both those sandwiches come on thick toasted (I think potato?) sandwich bread and my god it was all SO delicious. Again, the portion was enough for two meals, and it was just a turkey sandwich! The turkey was super succulent too. One small detail i really appreciated was that I believe they cut their tomatoes on the slicer as well; they're incredibly thin, and they add a lot to the sandwich without overpowering it. Also their tots are unreal. Sorry for rambling. I'm very passionate about sandwiches apparently. All I'm saying is that if you're at the oceanfront and you're trying to pick a sandwich place, it should be this one.

It was definitely busy during the lunch rush, but worth the wait. The dish was so good! The lemon zest really brightened everything up and kept it from feeling too heavy despite the Caesar dressing, tots, and fried chicken. It added a depth of flavor I wasn't expecting and absolutely loved. At $18 (+ an additional $2 for a can of diet coke), it's a little pricey IMHO, but I'd order it again without hesitation because it's that good. Yorkie's is such a cute spot, the staff was friendly, and while parking can be a bit sparse around lunchtime, it's worth it. I'm already looking forward to going back and trying more of the menu!

The woman at the counter was very helpful and nice, explaining things to us. He decided on a cheesesteak and I got a veggie, and we got fries to split between us. Food came to us in roughly 15 minutes. In the meantime we sat and drank our teas. He got it unsweetened, while I got the sweet. Their tea is actually quite nice, although it is sweet, it's not like super sweet, you can taste the black tea on the back of your throat at the end a little. As far as food goes, it was pretty good. I like the fact that there were different types of cheeses on the veggie, and you could choose between it being hot or cold, I got cold. The bread is squishy and soft, which can be nice, but I wanted a more sturdier bread. Next time, I'll ask for it to be toasted. I'm also a person who likes mayo and mustard on it, but instead I just had their oil and vinegar, which I didn't enjoy as much. It was a little drippy because of it, but it didn't get soggy, and didn't make too much of a mess. Their fries were really good though. Nicely seasoned, and had a good crisp to them on the outside while the inside was soft. I ate them without ketchup, but they do have some on the tables if you like them like that. My dad really enjoyed his cheesesteak, and after having a bite, I can see why. The meat is tender and flavorful, nicely shredded so it just melts in your mouth. Nothing chewy about it. One of the best cheesesteaks I've ever had, even though it was only my second time. He also thought the bread could be more sturdy, but other than that it was great! Our total for everything was a little over $20 including tip. Definitely will be back to try more sometime!
